Bright Sword: Double penetration of the dealer, shocking Li Yunlong

Chapter 322: Dark shadows loom over the city, who is the chess player?

The officer walked into the smoke-filled conference room with steady steps.

He seemed to have a chill in him, and wherever he passed, the air seemed to freeze into ice.

Li Jingrong narrowed his eyes, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes deepened.

He looked at the person who came. The badge of the General Headquarters flashed coldly under the light, which was particularly dazzling.

It is a symbol of power and also an invisible pressure.

"Chen Zhiyuan." The officer stopped beside the deputy commander-in-chief. His voice was not loud, but it reached everyone's ears clearly. "Special Inspector of the General Headquarters."

A simple self-introduction, with an unquestionable majesty.

His sharp eyes swept across everyone and finally fell on Li Jingrong, as if he wanted to see through him.

"From now on, all actions of the New 1st Brigade must be approved by me." Chen Zhiyuan's tone was calm, but with a confidence that he was in control of everything.

The atmosphere in the conference room was extremely depressing.

Everyone held their breath, afraid of making any noise and causing unnecessary trouble.

A surge of anger surged in Li Jingrong's heart.

The territory he had fought so hard to conquer and the team he had led through bloody battles, now had to be dictated to by an outsider?

But he knew that now was not the time to lose his temper.

He took a deep breath, tried to suppress the anger in his heart, and forced a smile on his face: "Inspector Chen, you have come a long way and worked hard. We will definitely cooperate with your work to the fullest."

On the surface, Li Jingrong chose to cooperate.

But he knew in his heart that the real battle had just begun.

"Liu Yuan," Li Jingrong said in a low voice so that only Liu Yuan beside him could hear, "Keep a close eye on him! Monitor his every move."

Liu Yuan nodded.

After the meeting, Li Jingrong returned to his office with a frown on his face.

He walked to the window and looked at the gray sky outside, his heart filled with worry.

"Commander, the situation isn't good." Zhao Gang walked over to Li Jingrong and said worriedly, "This Chen Zhiyuan isn't here with good intentions."

Li Jingrong nodded without saying anything.

He knew that Zhao Gang was telling the truth.

This Chen Zhiyuan is not only here to monitor, but also to seize power.

"We must find out his background as soon as possible." Li Jingrong said in a deep voice, "Let's see what he wants to do."

At this moment, Liu Yuan hurried in with a hint of excitement on his face: "Brigade Commander! I have intercepted the enemy's communication!"

"What?!" Li Jingrong turned around abruptly, a gleam in his eyes, "Speak!"

"It's that high-frequency radio signal!" Liu Yuan said excitedly, "It's the same signal used by the previous 'Shadow Project'! It's appeared again!"

Li Jingrong's heart skipped a beat.

He will never forget that set of signals. It is the evidence of the "Shadow Project" and also the cancer hidden within them.

"Where are they?" Li Jingrong asked anxiously.

"They've moved." Liu Yuan pointed to a red dot on the map and said, "Their current location is a small village in the area we control."

"They still dare to come back?" Li Jingrong sneered, "You really don't take the road to heaven, but you break into hell!"

"Brigade Commander, what should we do?" Liu Yuan asked.

"Block the news!" Li Jingrong said decisively, "We absolutely cannot let anyone know about this, including Chen Zhiyuan! Also, have Duan Peng lead the Wolf Warriors to secretly track this signal. Remember, we must capture them alive!"

"Yes!" Liu Yuan saluted, turned around and walked out quickly.

"Brigade Commander, do you want to report this matter to the deputy commander-in-chief?" Zhao Gang asked.

Li Jingrong shook his head. "We can't be sure of the deputy commander's attitude yet. Reporting rashly might alert the enemy. We must first obtain sufficient evidence before we can take the initiative."

"But..." Zhao Gang hesitated to speak.

"No buts!" Li Jingrong interrupted him. "These are extraordinary times. We must be cautious and tread carefully. Remember, our goal is to uncover the enemy hiding within us and defend our base!"

Dongfang Wenyin walked into Li Jingrong's office and brought her suggestions.

"Commander, I think we should show weakness," Dongfang Wenyin said softly. "Chen Zhiyuan is watching us now. Our every move is under his nose. If we confront him head-on, it will only make him more vigilant."

"What do you mean?" Li Jingrong asked.

"We can proactively show him goodwill and lower his guard," Dongfang Wenyin explained. "We can hold an 'internal rectification briefing.' At the meeting, you can publicly declare your commitment to obey your superiors' instructions and actively cooperate with Chen Zhiyuan's work. At the same time, we can proactively propose handing over the relevant information on the 'Shadow Project' to the Supervisory Group for processing."

Li Jingrong frowned. "Isn't this too risky? The information on Project Shadow is our most important trump card."

"It's precisely because it's so important that we have to hand it over." Dongfang Wenyin smiled slightly. "If we hide it, it will only make him suspicious. Handing it over proactively can dispel his doubts and make him feel that we are truly cooperating."

Li Jingrong was silent for a moment, and finally nodded: "Okay, I'll do as you say."

"Also," Dongfang Wenyin added, "At the meeting, you can appropriately 'cry poor,' complain about the difficulties faced by the troops, and ask for support from your superiors. This will make them feel that we pose no threat, and they will lower their guard."

"You are such a mischievous spirit." Li Jingrong said with a smile.

A few days later, the "internal rectification reporting meeting" was held as scheduled.

The conference room was filled with cadres from the New 1st Brigade.

Chen Zhiyuan sat on the podium, looking at the people below with an expressionless face.

Li Jingrong stood at the podium and delivered a passionate speech.

He first reviewed the glorious achievements of the New 1st Brigade, then deeply analyzed the problems existing in the troops. Finally, he solemnly stated that he would resolutely obey the arrangements of his superiors and actively cooperate with Chen Zhiyuan's work.

"To show our sincerity, I have decided to hand over all the relevant information about the 'Shadow Project' to the supervisory team." After Li Jingrong finished speaking, he took a file bag from the guard beside him and handed it to Chen Zhiyuan.

Chen Zhiyuan took the file bag, opened it and took a look. His eyes changed slightly and he seemed relieved.

Li Jingrong keenly captured the changes in Chen Zhiyuan's expression.

He knew that Dongfang Wenyin's plan had succeeded.

At the same time, Zhou Weiguo led the Wolf Warriors and secretly sneaked into the village near the signal source.

The village is not big, with only dozens of households.

The Wolf Warriors disguised themselves as ordinary villagers and quietly sneaked into the village.

After some investigation, they found that the source of the signal came from an abandoned granary outside the village.

Several men in plain clothes were patrolling around the granary.

They seem careless, but they are actually very vigilant.

Zhou Weiguo knew that these people were the direct subordinates of "Eagle Eye".

He gestured to his team members, and the Wolf Warriors quickly took action, quietly eliminating the patrol personnel on the periphery.

Afterwards, Zhou Weiguo kicked open the door of the granary and rushed in with his team members.

In the granary, several spies were operating the radio.

When they saw someone suddenly rushing in, they were immediately panicked.

The Wolf Warriors were agile and subdued all the spies in no time.

After interrogation, Zhou Weiguo learned that these spies were sent by "Eagle Eye" and their mission was to create chaos at the critical moment and support the Japanese counterattack.

"Take them away!" Zhou Weiguo said coldly, "Don't leave any of them behind!"

The Wolf Warriors escorted the spies out of the granary and secretly brought them back to the base.

However, just as Zhou Weiguo was about to interrogate further, an unexpected situation occurred.

"Captain, this is bad!" A Wolf Warrior rushed over, his face pale. "He's awake..."

Zhou Weiguo's eyebrows twitched. Wake up?

Who woke up?

An ominous premonition came over me.

He didn't bother to ask any questions and strode towards the room where the prisoners were held.

But before he could even reach the door, Duan Peng rushed over, his face filled with anxiety, his voice trembling, "Captain, this is bad! The deputy commander's office has been robbed! The 'Eagle Eye' operation plan... is gone!"

Zhou Weiguo only felt a buzzing in his head, as if struck by lightning, and his mind went blank in an instant.

Action plan stolen?

This is a bolt from the blue!

He knew exactly what this meant.

However, worse news followed.

A communicator died mysteriously, lying in a pool of blood, his death was miserable.

Zhou Weiguo suppressed his anger and carefully examined the body. One detail made him feel like he was falling into an icy cave.

In the hand of the communicator, a familiar pocket watch was tightly grasped. The black watch body was engraved with a lifelike crow, which was the "Black Corvus" token that Lin Sen had carried with him before!

A chill ran from the soles of Zhou Weiguo's feet to his forehead.

Lin Sen is the traitor!

But isn't he dead?

Could it be... that there are accomplices?

He suddenly realized that this was not just the theft of the action plan, it was a stab in the back, a naked betrayal!

The enemy may be lurking around them, or even in a high position!

"Block the news!" Zhou Weiguo ordered through gritted teeth, his voice icy and emotionless. "Make sure to find out who did it!"

He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

Now is not the time to lose his composure. He must find a breakthrough as soon as possible and pull out the poisonous snake hiding in the dark.

"Captain, what should we do next?" Duan Peng's voice trembled a little, and he was obviously frightened by this series of changes.

Zhou Weiguo's eyes were as sharp as knives as he looked towards the dark night sky in the distance, which seemed to be hiding countless conspiracies and murderous intentions.

"Is there any news from Su Zheng?" Zhou Weiguo asked, trying to change the subject.

Duan Peng shook his head: "Not yet. But, Captain, I think we should transfer these prisoners immediately. It's no longer safe here!"

Zhou Weiguo pondered for a moment and nodded: "You are right, there is no time to lose, move immediately!"

Just as the Wolf Warriors were preparing to transfer the prisoners, a voice suddenly sounded behind them: "Where... are you going?"
